playerViewController.updatesNowPlayingInfoCenter = false

class PlayerViewController: UIViewController {
    
    var player: AVPlayer!
    var playerViewController: AVPlayerViewController!
    var videoURLString: String = ""
    @IBOutlet weak var tittleLabel: UILabel!
    var videoTittle: String = ""
    @IBOutlet weak var playerViewUI: UIView!
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        
        if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
            overrideUserInterfaceStyle = .light
        }
        
        do {
            try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(.playback)
            try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true)
        } catch {
            print("Error configuring audio session: \(error)")
        }

        tittleLabel.text = videoTittle
        guard let videoURL = URL(string: videoURLString) else {
            return
        }
        
        player = AVPlayer(url: videoURL)
        playerViewController = AVPlayerViewController()
        playerViewController.player = player
        addChild(playerViewController)
        playerViewUI.addSubview(playerViewController.view)
        playerViewController.view.frame = playerViewUI.bounds
        player.play()
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(playerDidFinishPlaying(_:)), name: NSNotification.Name.AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: player.currentItem)
        setupNowPlaying()
    }
    
    @objc func playerDidFinishPlaying(_ notification: Notification) {
        navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
    }
    
    deinit {
        NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self, name: NSNotification.Name.AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: player.currentItem)
        player?.pause()
    }
    
    func setupNowPlaying() {
            var nowPlayingInfo = [String : Any]()
            nowPlayingInfo[MPMediaItemPropertyTitle] = "title example"
            nowPlayingInfo[MPMediaItemPropertyArtist] = "artist example"

            MPNowPlayingInfoCenter.default().nowPlayingInfo = nowPlayingInfo
        }
}

  • There is bunch of other keys have you tried that? – SPatel Jul 05 '23 at 17:56
  • i tried with other keys but they didn't appear either i made a print to "new plating info" and the print shows everything correct the problem is that it is not seen in the control center only the player is seen but not the information. – Noise182 Jul 05 '23 at 23:24
